In this episode of The Body Shift, I sit down with Carley, a certified sex and intimacy coach with a decade+ of lived experience in the adult industry. Carley shares what it was like to enter sex work at 18, the stigmas she’s faced as a woman in that world, and how that path shaped the powerful, embodied coach she is today.

We explore the truth behind seduction, the ways intimacy is often misunderstood, and how her work with couples and women is grounded in both compassion and fierce honesty. Carley’s story is a testament to reclamation of body, power, voice, and desire.

In this episode, we talk about:
– Carley’s entry into the sex work industry at 18
– The nuanced stigmas women face in and after the industry
– What sex work taught her about power, consent, and communication
– Why seduction is a mindset, not a tactic
– How she supports women and couples in her coaching practice
– The evolution of identity, desire, and truth-telling

In this episode, I’m joined by Sovereign Creatrix and Revolutionary Provocateur Emily Case for a conversation on self-leadership, the Gene Keys, and the deeper layers of personal growth that don’t always get talked about.

We explore how understanding our energetic makeup — through both Human Design and Gene Keys — can illuminate the patterns we’ve been repeating, the wounds we carry, and the purpose we’re here to live.

We speak to the responsibility of mentorship, what it looks like to truly guide without control, and how boundaries create more space for sovereignty.

Inside this episode:

• Gene Keys as a tool for deep self-understanding

• The role of core wounds in shaping how we lead + relate

• Navigating mentorship without bypassing self-trust

• What it means to lead yourself first — and fully

• How to honor your design without performing it

This is for the woman who’s walking herself home — and wants tools that actually meet her there.

Hey there! I'm Jordan, your guide through all things empowerment.

My superpower is reminding women of their power and I love nothing more than seeing you own who you are. Through this show, I bring you tough love and tangible tips mixed with trauma informed care and my own personal experiences.
